wilderness

Chapter 24

The voice was a little annoyed, "You, you bow your head!"

Gu Beiqiao lowered his head and saw a few thin stalks in the rough pottery pot, and the small flowers at the top said shyly, "Did you recognize me this time?"

Gu Beiqiao was surprised: "You can talk?"

Xiaohua said: "I can talk all the time!"

"Then why didn't you agree when I asked you before?"

Xiao Hua shook the leaves angrily, "You always mistook me, I ignored you on purpose."

"Admit your mistake?" Gu Beiqiao thought for a while, "Aren't you Gesanghua?"

Xiaohua said a little unhappy: "I'm not Gesanghua, I'm Cosmos!"

Gu Beiqiao was a little disappointed, "I'm sorry."

Cosmos said: "Forget it, you have to leave anyway, I forgive you."

Gu Beiqiao looked at its slender petals and murmured: "You really look alike." Then he added: "But they grow on the grassland, and you are different."

Cosmos shook her head, "The grasslands are full of wild flowers, no one cares about them, they are messy and messy. We are planted from flowers carefully selected by humans."

Gu Beiqiao said: "But you can only stay on the balcony, don't you want to go out and have a look?"

The flowers and plants chirped: "Isn't it good on the balcony? As long as the master doesn't forget to fertilize and water us, we can live in peace and stability for a lifetime!"

"Yes, don't worry about being scorched by the sun or drowned by the rain."

"If it's flowering time, the master will still praise us for being beautiful! Who would travel thousands of miles to praise the wild flowers on the grassland?"

Gu Beiqiao shook his head, "Someone will always go."

He suddenly thought of the days when Gu Tianze locked him in the house, they all went to work and left him alone.He could only stay under the window and look out, the house was so small, and so was the community in Spring, he was almost out of breath.He often looks at the sky, the clouds in the sky are so free, come and go, gather and disperse with the wind; the plane tree is also so free, can enjoy the sun, rain and dew without restraint; even a grain of dust, a drop of water is free, In the sky and on the earth, you can go anywhere.

It would be great if people were like this, living in a vast and uninhabited wilderness, with flowers and grass, and good friends as companions, no one would point fingers at themselves, and no one would look at them strangely.

The flowers and plants were still discussing, but Gu Beiqiao didn't want to pay attention to them. He returned to the living room, sat on the sofa side by side with the idiot, and searched the animal world with the remote control.

The grass on the African savannah was already withered and yellow, and the lion yawned tiredly and let out a 'snoring' sound.

The fool also 'snorted' a bit.

Gu Beiqiao turned his head to look, and saw that the idiot was sobbing and crying, sucking his nose from time to time.

"Don't cry." Gu Beiqiao took out a tissue from the glass table and stuffed it into his hand, "If you still think of me in the future, you can find me."

Sobbing, the fool asked him, "Can't find you?"

"Impossible. If you see a thick and big tree on the grassland, I must be nearby. By the way, I told you that it is my good friend. It is the one that was brought down from the mountain. An old sycamore."

The fool nodded with red eyes, "Okay, I will remember."

Gu Beiqiao took out the envelope that Sister Zhao gave him before, counted it, and put 2000 yuan in it. He thought about it, and finally only kept [-] yuan, and put the rest in the drawer under the coffee table.

Aunt Zhao is usually very generous to herself, and she can no longer take so much money from her.

Sister Zhao made a grand lunch, two soups and eight dishes, including sweet and sour pork ribs that Shaqing likes, and scrambled eggs with green peppers that Gu Beiqiao likes.The salty soup is thickened with starch, and the consistency is just right; the sweet soup has candied dates and colorful glutinous rice balls floating on the surface, which is cute and attractive.

Sister Zhao picked up a chopstick dish for Gu Beiqiao, and said to him with some reluctance: "If you like to eat the dishes made by Auntie, eat more, it may be difficult to eat in the future."

Gu Beiqiao nodded and let go of his stomach to eat.

"The sweet and sour pork ribs are delicious. I know that Qiaoqiao doesn't eat fatty meat. When I bought the ribs this time, I picked the ones that didn't have a little fat on them. Feel free to eat them."

Gu Beiqiao went to pick up the ribs again, chewed in his mouth, "Mmm, delicious!"

Uncle Chen smiled and said: "Look at you, our silly family is not happy when we just greet Qiaoqiao. We pouted at the beginning, and we can hang a lantern," he said, with a piece of meat in his hand and sent it to the fool's bowl Li, "Okay, your mother doesn't love you, but your father loves you."

After eating this meal for two full hours, they were chatting and laughing at first, but when the cups and plates were messed up, the idiot started to cry again, even Sister Zhao couldn't help turning red in her eyes.

Seeing that the atmosphere was a bit heavy, Uncle Chen smoothed things over and said, "It's not like Qiaoqiao won't come back. After he finishes playing, he will go home and report his safety, and then he can come to us! At that time, Shaqing might be cured." That's right, two big boys stand in front of us, how nice it is!"

Sister Zhao nodded, "That's right, that's right, well, then I won't keep you anymore, go back early."

Gu Beiqiao carried his backpack and took a deep look at them, "Aunt Zhao, Uncle Chen, goodbye." He turned and walked out the door.

The idiot jumped out suddenly, hugged him from behind, and cried, "Brother Qiao!"

Uncle Chen rushed to pull him, "Silly Qing, Qiaoqiao will come back, don't do this."

The idiot's hands are so strong that even an adult, Uncle Chen, can't separate them for a while, "Silly! Let go!"

The idiot lay on Gu Beiqiao's back, tears almost soaking the clothes on his back, but he didn't let go, shouting: "Brother Qiao, Brother Qiao!"

Gu Beiqiao reluctantly tried to break the hands lying across his chest. During the dispute, his fingernails accidentally scratched the back of the idiot's hands, but he still refused to let go.

At this time, Sister Zhao also came over to help, "Silly, let go, or I will ask your father to beat you up tonight."

The idiot shook his head again and again, but just hugged Gu Beiqiao tightly and didn't let go.

The four of them chattered and walked all the way to the door of the noodle shop, attracting suspicious looks from the passers-by.

In the end, the fool was no match for six hands, and was pulled away by Uncle Chen and Sister Zhao driving alone.

Gu Beiqiao got away and walked a few steps forward. Looking back, the idiot was crying heartbreakingly, his flushed face twisted into a ball, his nose and saliva sticking to the corner of his mouth, he was really embarrassed, and he was still calling him: "Brother Qiao Brother Qiao!"

Gu Beiqiao finally said to them: "Goodbye." Then he put on his bag and left Chen Ji Noodle House without looking back.

He was walking on the road, and the camphor trees on the street seemed to be more lush, casting large shadows on the ground, and he suddenly remembered that it didn't seem to be so dense when he first came here.At that time, it was also a fool who hugged him and kept making him eat noodles. He thought it was a little prick looking for trouble, but he didn't expect it to be a little fool.Aunt Zhao invited him to eat a bowl of shredded pork noodles, Zhao Xiaofei called himself Brother Qiaoqiao, Zhao Yang foolishly asked where he was going, Uncle Chen gently let him go to play, and he was busy with his work...

But he knew that he didn't belong here, and he was afraid that after these friends knew about his situation, they would treat him with strange eyes like the people before, some fearful, some disgusting... Will Aunt Zhao become the first What about the second Xu Hui?That night, he accidentally discovered that she was also missing...

Gu Beiqiao got on the bus at the entrance of the park and looked at the stop at the central station.

In any case, he has made strides.

When he arrived at the station, he found the bus to C City, lined up to buy a ticket, and then sat in the waiting room and waited.

At 04:30 in the afternoon, it was finally time for the shuttle bus to start. Gu Beiqiao followed the crowd to check the tickets, and got on the bus with his bag.

This bus will have to travel all night to reach the terminal, and it is estimated that it will be just in the early morning when it arrives in City C. Gu Beiqiao squinted his eyes and looked out the window, planning the itinerary in his heart.

City C is still a long way from the Tibetan area. It is best to get on the bus heading west immediately when you get there, and don't stop there. It should take less than half a month to get there.

Gu Beiqiao closed his eyes comfortably, and gradually fell asleep.

When he woke up, the car was still driving on the highway, there were not many cars on the road, except for the fluorescent lights reflected from the reflectors along the way, the surroundings were pitch black.Almost all the people in the car were asleep, only the driver was smoking a cigarette to restrain his sleepiness.

Gu Beiqiao watched the sky outside the window gradually brighten up, and the scenery changed from a barren and inhabited countryside to a town, and finally drove into the station by the expressway around the city.

The sky was hazy, and Gu Beiqiao felt a chill as soon as he got out of the car, and goose bumps quickly appeared on his short-sleeved arms.He flicked his arm, went to the ticket office and asked the conductor: "Is there a bus to City Y?"

The conductor stared at the computer without looking back and said coldly: "No."

Gu Beiqiao was taken aback, City Y is the place he must pass through, and there is no shuttle bus here?So he asked again: "Is it not today or has it not been?"

The conductor rolled his eyes impatiently and came over, "Never! You can go there by train for such a long distance. It will take a few days to get there by car. You are as tired as the driver!"

Gu Beiqiao walked out of the station dejectedly, and was thinking about what to do when a few scalpers approached holding a sign, "Hey handsome guy, where are you going? Chartered car?"

"One person or several people? If you go to District XX, take my car. There is only one person left, get in the car and leave!"

"My car is new and comfortable. If you are in a hurry, I will take you along! Can you go?"

Gu Beiqiao glanced at them, thought for a while and asked, "Are you going to City Y?"

The scalpers suppressed their smiles, "City Y...it's so far away, it will take several days to come back."

Gu Beiqiao squeezed the backpack strap and asked, "Can't you go?"

One person hesitated and said: "It's not impossible, but the fare is a bit expensive. You are still a student, right? I'm afraid you won't be able to accept it."

Seeing that there was a turning point, Gu Beiqiao's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly asked, "How much?"

The man looked at his whole body, "You alone?"

Seeing that Gu Beiqiao nodded, he said again: "It's not worthwhile to run for you alone, and I don't ask for more. The round-trip gas fee plus some travel expenses, let's say [-]."

Gu Beiqiao opened his mouth, clenched his hands even tighter, and said after a while, "I...I don't have that much money."

The man asked, "How much do you want to pay?"

"I only have six hundred..."

The man gave him a blank look, "That's much worse."

"Six hundred, you'd better take the train, it's enough for a sleeper berth!" The scalpers laughed and turned around to disperse.

Gu Beiqiao looked at their backs, and thought to himself: If I can take the train, why should I look for you?

Then he sighed, he had no choice but to charter a car to go to City Y, and he regretted not keeping a few hundred extra from the money Aunt Zhao gave him, it seemed that he had to work to save money again.

It was early in the morning, and there were more and more people coming and going around the station. Gu Beiqiao was wandering around the area. There were many shops here. He wanted to see if there was a signboard at the door.

As he walked and watched, he was engrossed in watching, when he bumped into a person head-on.

"Ouch!" The man's foot was stepped on by Gu Beiqiao, he jumped up in pain, and shouted angrily, "You don't have eyes when you walk!"
